Yale Law Dean Calls for Further Inquiry Before Kavanaugh Vote

“Proceeding with the confirmation process without further investigation is not in the best interest of the Court or our profession.”

The dean of Yale Law School announced Friday that she stands with the American Bar Association’s call for further inquiry into the allegations of sexual assault against Brett Kavanaugh before his nomination is confirmed, warning that acting otherwise could taint the public’s perception of the court. “I join the American Bar Association in calling for an additional investigation into allegations made against Judge Kavanaugh,” Dean Heather Gerken said in a statement cited by The Wall Street Journal. “Proceeding with the confirmation process without further investigation is not in the best interest of the Court or our profession.”
